Generally speaking, Armenian armies are made up of Parthian-style armies, with both horse archers and cataphracts. They have weak early infantry with the exception of the heavy spearmen unit, who can make a surprisingly effective phalanx for troops that hail from such hilly terrain. They also have imitation Legions for their late armies.
